But all that has changed. Suddenly, Mama is shutting doors that were always kept open and Melanin Sun begins to realize she's been keeping secrets from him for a long, long time. For Melanin Sun, the truth is worse than anything he could have imagined. So is the humiliation from the cruel gossip that's been going around the neighborhood. The change in his relationship with Mama is painful enough. But now Melanin Sun must face his own deepest fears and prejudices if he and Mama are ever to be whole again.
